the first collection of poems from Deborah Moffatt, an
American writer who has been living in Scotland for many years.

‘These poems, set sometimes in North America often
bring to mind Lewis Grassic Gibbon the Scottish writer who so powerfully
portrayed life beyond the city. The style of writing in these poems is clear
and lucid and even the Poundian allusions, intentional or not, suggest an
empathy with their subjects.’
